Abstract
- Purpose: The aim of the present study was utilizing Xiaoaiping as a single agent or combined with cisplatin to study its effect on the ovarian cancer cells (HO-8910 and HO-8910PM cells) in tumor cell proliferation, cell apoptosis, cell cycle distribution and cell invasion and migration.<br />Methods: Both HO-8910 and HO-8910PM cell lines were treated with Xiaoaiping injection, cisplatin or combination. Effects on the cell viability and apoptosis induction were estimated using the Cell counting Kit-8 assay and Annexin V-FITC/Propidium Iodide staining. The distribution of cells in different phases of the cell cycle was assayed using flow cytometry analysis. The effects of Xiaoaiping on the inhibition of cell invasion and migration were researched with Transwell cell migration.<br />Results: Both Xiaoaiping and cisplatin significantly decreased the HO-8910 cell survival versus control arm. Combination treatment showed a higher cytotoxicity to cells in vitro than Xiaoaiping and cisplatin alone. An increase in the G0/G1 phase fraction in HO-8910 cells treated with either Xiaoaiping or cisplatin alone was evident when compared to the fraction in control arm. Compared to the effects of treatment with either agent alone, combination treatment significantly increased the fraction of cells in G0/G1 phase. The HO-8910 cell lines treated with cisplatin demonstrated a significant increase of apoptotic cell rate compared to untreated cell lines. The rate of apoptosis in combined treatment group was significantly higher than that of the single agent treatment groups. A significant reduction in the number of invading cells was observed for Xiaoaiping-treated HO-8910 cells compared with the control group. However, cisplatin did not significantly induce the migration of cells versus untreated cells. Combination of Xiaoaiping and cisplatin significantly suppressed cell invasion and migration versus single-drug treatment in HO-8910 cells. The results of HO-8910PM cells were similar with HO-8910 cells in all tests.<br />Conclusions: In summary, our results showed that Xiaoaiping as a single agent or combined with cisplatin could induce cell cycle arrest, cause apoptosis and necrosis in ovarian cancer cells, and inhibit cell invasion and migration. The present study also laid a foundation for further investigation involving molecular mechanism. Above all, it may provide a novel therapeutic regimen for ovarian cancer.<br /> (Copyright © 2017 Elsevier Masson SAS. All rights reserved.)
